Mimicking Nature to preserve our food & environment.

Sobre nosotros

At NAT4Bio, we develop naturally-sourced coatings that protect fruits and vegetables from spoilage and decay. We leverage microbial fermentation of selected fungi & bacteria in order to produce natural compounds with relevant properties. Through carefully designed downstream processes, we are able to obtain cell-free compounds, meaning we use microbes' active principles without the microbes themselves. Our first product is a natural and edible coating for fresh lemons that could potentially replace the combination of waxes and chemical fungicides. We are also working with blueberries and avocados, and we aim to expand our portfolio to address the needs of every fruit class.

    We produce enough food to feed the world, yet 733 million people still face hunger⚠️. One of the leading causes? Food waste. From harvest to our tables, food is lost at every stage of the supply chain, meaning that not everyone has access to food, which is the third most basic human need: everyone should have the right to adequate food🍽️. At NAT4Bio 🍋, we’re committed to a solution: our bio-based coatings extend the life of food, reducing waste and ensuring better access to safe, sustainable nutrition💚. Biotechnology is our ally in protecting what matters most: our health, our food, and the planet. #Sustainability #Biotechnology #Innovation #bioproducts #food

  • Did you know that more than 95% of our food depends directly on healthy soils? A healthy soil is full of life: beneath our feet lies a microscopic universe of billions of organisms🦠 —tiny yet essential to life as we know it. At NAT4Bio🍋 , these invisible soil inhabitants are our greatest teachers and allies. They inspire us to create innovative biological solutions that protect our food and reduce our environmental impact. Without them, our breakthroughs in biotechnology simply wouldn’t exist. But our soils are at risk. It can take up to 1,000 years to form just 2-3 cm of fertile soil🌱 . Soil degradation threatens global food security and soils' critical role in capturing carbon—a powerful tool in the fight against climate change. 💡 Let’s work together to protect our soils: they are the foundation of agriculture, the key to food security, and the bridge to a sustainable future. #WorldSoilDay #Sustainability #Innovation

  • Let's kick off the blueberry season 🫐 Blueberries are a fantastic food. They are a source of antioxidants, vitamin C, potassium, and fiber 💪, and eating them boosts the immune system. Nowadays, blueberries face some significant challenges when it comes to their transportation🚚. Botrytis cinerea and dehydration cause significant losses during transport. When blueberries lose their 'crunchiness,' their market value is reduced by up to 20%📉 This happens to almost half of all exports! At Nat4Bio🍋, we are committed to changing this reality. Our bio-based coatings naturally protect blueberries, helping to reduce losses and ensure they arrive in perfect condition, fresh, and ready for market.   #Coatings #Sustainability #Blueberries #Agro

Paula's mission aligns perfectly with Nat4Bio's vision of offering natural solutions to the agricultural industry. She believes the company's success will pave the way for the broader adoption of biological products, benefiting both the market and consumers.
